Trita Parsi: Future of the Iran Nuclear Deal

Through the Iran Deal, the international community blocked all of Irans pathways to a nuclear weapon and they did so without any violence. This agreement has been praised across the globe.

Trita Parsi will speak about his new book Losing an Enemy Obama, Iran, and the Triumph of Diplomacy regarding the success of the Iran Deal and how it is now at risk under the Trump Administration. He will sign copies after the talk.

Trita Parsis first book, Treacherous Alliance The Secret Dealings of Israel, Iran and the US (Yale University Press, 2007) won the Grawemeyer award and Council of Foreign Relations Arthur Ross Award in 2008 (Silver medallion). His second book, A Single Roll of the Dice Obamas Diplomacy with Iran (Yale University Press, 2012) was selected as The Best Book on The Middle East in 2012 by Foreign Affairs.

Dr. Parsi is the President of the largest Iranian-American grassroots organization in the US, the National Iranian American Council, and has taught at Johns Hopkins University and George Washington University. He currently teaches at the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University in Washington DC.
